Heading into the 2024-25 NHL season the Toronto Maple Leafs roster is completely up in air with several question marks.
Are Tyler Bertuzzi and Max Domi returning? Is Toronto Maple Leafs management going to try and move on from Mitch Marner or John Tavares? Will there be an abundance of youth brought into the roster?
To answer the first question, I can see the Leafs bringing back Domi, but not at the dollar amount his camp is trying to leak as reliable information.
The second question, I believe management will explore moving both Marner and Tavares, but I think they will return to the team with extensions being worked out.
The final question is what I find very interesting and that is regarding how many prospects will be on the Maple Leafs roster.
I believe as many as four rookies will play significant roles on the team this upcoming season and here are who they are.
The Leafs are in a position where they can finally start mixing in some young and cheap talent with their core for better results. We saw this year as Matthew Knies, Bobby McMann, Joseph Woll, Timothy Liljegren and Nick Robertson provided the Leafs with a ton of cheap value.
Here is who can do the same thing next season:
